My girlfriend sent me this – I think Lituania found a pretty rad way of handling illegal parking
... although I don't think there are enough armored vehicles to enforce it in NYC. Lithuanian Mayor Crushes a Mercedes Parked in a Bike Lane

|  | That's the way uh huh uh huh I like it.. | | Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Robbinsville, NJ | | That's actually an APC (not a tank) but I'm only mentioning that because I'm exceedingly OCD when it comes to that sort of thing and know that no really gives a crap..
On the other hand - I love Lithuania. Good people, hot girls, cool language and apparently a bad-arsed major in their capitol!

But thanks! It's obvious now that you said it, I'm going to make my post a tad more generic.

But you, you'd go straight at the driver sitting inside a tank? You have some courage

| | | | I wish I could find the pictures my dad took on one of his many visits to Iran.
Back when the shah was still in power my dad made quite a few trips to Iran on behalf of the US government on the pretext of evaluating their helicopter pilot training capability.
One time he came back with several pictures of cars roughly bisected between the front and rear with what looked to be a gas powered chop saw like those used by paramedics for extracting crash victims from mangled cars. Apparently that was the "remedy" under the shah for illegal parking and other minor trafficviolations. They would cut down both sides and across the roof. I guess it was cheaper and faster than all the bother of writing tickets and taking (and keeping track of) fines.
